What's kind of funny Noggin is that the epitome of Communism , in China the average worker earns about $3,500 a year and the average house is over $100,000. There is no feedback loop from products produced to products consumed there. Therefore they create a bunch of shit product. The only people making money in a communist Society are the Elite. I'm not sure where you get the idea that you can have all the good and none of the bad with your Utopia.

China is state capitalism, not communism.

On the bold: Kinda like America, just a different degree.

China magnifies the inherent contradiction in capitalism. Workers cannot afford to consume the products they make. That is going on here as well.

When productivity and wages diverge and stagnate like the graph I posted showed, wealth becomes sequestered, demand drops, and debt rises. 

Sound at all familiar?

So how about an example of a great communist Nation that is fairer than the US to the working person?

There has never been one. Authoritarians and capitalists always crushed libertarian communist movements.

Then I guess I don't understand which team you're pulling for. Have a great night.

That's because the true communism just didn't work. Between 1959 and 1961, food production plummeted due to crop and industrial shortfalls. A great famine resulted, causing millions of deaths. The loss of privately run sectors was hurting the country tremendously.

Authoritarianism isn't communism. 

Communism is a stateless, classless society where the means of production are commonly owned.
